Beautiful Photographs Of New York Captured By Stanley Kubrick

Stanley Kubrick was a visionary filmmaker, best known for his experimental and groundbreaking motion pictures like A Clockwork Orange, 2001: A Space Odyssey and Dr. Strangelove, among many others.

But the New York-born director was pretty handy with still images as well. A new series of photographs taken by Kubrick have been released by the Museum of the City of New York, which is working with VandM for a limited edition sale of 25 spectacular prints.

MCNY assisted VandM in going through over 10,000 negatives to produce the set, which showcases New York City life throughout the 1940s and 50s. Through both candid portraits and a bit of mugging, Kubrick gives us a beautiful slice of NYC nostalgia.

Perhaps most impressively, Kubrick was the youngest photographer in Look magazine history at the time these were taken.

You can make one of these prints your own for $250. In the meantime, take a look at the photos here at Business Insider.
